United Contractors

On Saturday night, UCON members came together for our annual Advocacy Auction, in support of our political and advocacy work for union-signatory construction firms across California. It was an EPIC evening. Thank you to our AMAZING members for your support and generosity! What a night!!

We take a moment to honor all veterans who have served our country, especially those who contribute to the construction industry. Your dedication, resilience, and commitment are invaluable to our communities and the work we do.

“Put pride in your work and make safety first, because your family is waiting for you to get home.” Peyton, we could not have said it better ourselves! Check out her art work on the cover of UCON’s magazine, safety edition. #UCONMagazine #SafetyFirst #UnitedContractors

"How to Lead with Composure and Confidence on a Jobsite" - November 5, 2024 12:00pm - 1:00pm PDT The construction industry presents unique challenges that test a leader's composure and confidence. How do leaders maintain equilibrium in a high-stakes, fast-paced job site environment? Are the workers feeling confident, safe, and valued? Or are they feeling overworked, stressed, and uncertain? Too much leniency and the work may lose direction, leading to inefficiency and safety risks. The magic lies in calibrating a healthy balance, where leaders can assert their confidence and maintain composure, keeping the team motivated, safe, and productive. Our practice has found that leaders who are grounded in Emotional Intelligence have the ability not only to convey confidence but also elevate the experience of confidence in their people. https://ow.ly/5J5U50TWxeR Register today!
